"Man accumulates all types of desires in his mind which, when not fulfilled, make him desperate and he ends his life in unspeakable distress. He forgets that his innermost desire  the one he should cherish 
is the desire for good and for God. All other desires are mean and meaningless. Man has been endowed with the power to discriminate between the essentially good and the superficially pleasant, but he does not cultivate that faculty and benefit from it."
